   Guilty as charged. Thank you for the great list and for listing my site despite it’s neglected state. In midst of $ crisis is all and focused on solving that. Once resolved I’ll resume my “hobby”. Perhaps someday I’ll figure out how to turn hobby into livelihood… thx again.

   Thanks, Ron! I need to do a bit more updating with it. Some of the blogs in the teens down through the 30′s need to be promoted up the list and some of the top ones have stopped producing or have been misplaced. I tried to be as accurate as possible, but I admit that it could be better. Thanks for the visit!

    Great list. I had a couple hundred dad blogs listed once, but now that list is down to about 100 that (I think) are still active. Feel free to check it out and take whatever links you like

    Some of them (like me) are probably not posting very often anymore now that our kids are older. I haven’t even checked blog stats lately, but I’m sure my numbers have plummeted from what they once were.

    NYC Dads Group, So glad you like it! I was impressed as well with the quantity and quality of dadblogs out there. We might not be as big as the mom blogging community, but we’re definitely making some great progress. We’ll catch them some day!

    Holy crap, I made a list. Considering I don’t know a thing about SEO or any kind of rankings, I’m flattered and amazed I made this (or any) list. Thanks for doing all this leg work, I can only imagine how time-consuming it was. Not to mention this gives me plenty of other dad blogs to check out too.

    Great job.

    By Jack on December 19, 2009 | Reply

    Jack, it’s hard to say how many there are because Dad blogs don’t have the same community that mom blogs have, and that makes them harder to find. This list represents two months of searching and compiling. I had over 200 that I cut down from for this list. In addition to the ones that didn’t rank, there were some too new to rank and others that had been around a while and hadn’t gained any traction to rank. Needless to say, it was a lot of work. There are many hundreds of other inactive blogs which, even though they have PR, I couldn’t rank because they seem to have stopped posting. Everybody on this list has had activity within the past month.

    It’s definitely surprising and humbling to find out how high I rank, especially since house-buying has left me pretty scarce around blogland the past few months. I’m glad to see some blogs I read getting well-deserved placement, and I look forward to reading some of which I haven’t heard once life lets me get back into blog-reading.

    Thanks for this insane amount of pro-bono work, Keith!

    And by the way, yes, adding Father Muskrat would make the list even greater– I think he just forgot the wink with which he usually speaks!

    You’re welcome, LiteralDan I figured the work needed to be done since I couldn’t find another comprehensive list out there. At least not one that is objective. I’m glad we got Father Muskrat. I’ve actually been thinking of closing down the submissions and saving the rest for 6 months from now when I check stats again. This list is reasonably accurate, but I’m sure I must have missed some worthy candidates. I also feel bad about dropping anybody from the list this time around, but I still want to keep it at 125.

    Adam: Since this list, I have collected another 100 or so new additions and am fitting them into my formula for next year. I can’t really remember what the total sample was, but I want to say this represents about half. As you can imagine there are a lot of these blogs that are no longer being tended, and they will be removed next year. But, as long as there is some monthly activity I will continue to run the numbers
